DESCRIPTION
Registered as A K800, this pond yacht with a plank on frame hull, made in mahogany and cream painted plank lined deck. This classic A Class yacht would have been made in the 1960's by two or more people adhering to strict planned guidelines. This yacht has Bermuda rigged cotton sails, mostly chrome fittings and a self steering gear vane.
A superb example of British pond racing yacht and would have raced against similar yachts in competitions, club against club, all over Britain, sometimes against overseas clubs as well. Just like in real sailing competitions, to make things equal in the race, waterlines had to be the same length, plus overall area of the sails needed to be the same.
Today these pond yachts are extremely decorative and a great addition to any home. This particular yacht is massive, measuring over two meters in height, called an "A-boat" in the Club world.
